These refrigerator peanut butter cups are a great, clean replacement for the candy ones. I make up a batch to keep in the fridge for emergency cravings!
A mini muffin tin can be used to make these, but I prefer the paper baking cups I find in Home Goods for a couple dollars a package. I make sure the label says they are food and freezer safe.
I make 12 per batch (242 calories each), but they can be made a little larger (10 per batch) if you prefer them bigger. I use all organic ingredients from Trader Joe’s.
Mix together:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 1 cup peanut butter (peanuts as only ingredient)
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Dash of sea salt
Dividing the mixture evenly among the cups, press into 10 baking cups. Put the cups into the freezer for an hour to set.
Melt ½ cup unsweetened completely cacao chips and 2 Tbsp almond (or peanut) butter just until smooth. Spoon the mixture evenly over the 12 cups. Pop back into the freezer until set. Store in the fridge or freezer.
Tear off the paper cup to eat. Enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by! Have a fabulous weekend!
Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
